Blogging is like pissing… does not work if somebody's watching

Archive for July, 2005

Tomorrow I will start another “big project” and I still have lots of unclosed stuff here. I will have to make agreements with my previous clients who are complaining for support (unfortunately all of them think it’s free, gratis, etc…)
Normally I help them as I should, but after a number of requests I start to slow down, losing interest. I know it’s not the best what I can do, but they don’t want to pay my time and I really like them (not all of them, but in general) but I have to do my other jobs, too.
It’s easy to say the fault lies with me, but the situation is foggy. At this point I decided to be strong and tell them there is just one way of working together (of course I had to wait the time I don’t depend their future project promises)…
So hard time comes, I will have to check all the contracts and see if I will have to fulfill anything like burn the whole project on a CD or write a paper about the stuff.

We had great time at Mogyoród, exactly two days long time. Nice weather, sweeeeeet relaxation, lazing all the day! Wohoooo!
We have spent two days at the Aquapark and it’s camping, rigth before the Formula 1 madness.

Back to work! Brrrr…

Guess, what will produce this small program.

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
 int a = 3;
 printf ("a is: %d\n",a);
 printf ("++a + ++a: %d\n", ++a + ++a );
 printf ("after this a is: %d\n",a);
 int b = 3;
 printf ("b is: %d\n",b);
 printf ("b++ + b++: %d\n", b++ + b++ );
 printf ("after this b is: %d\n",b);
 int c = 3;
 printf ("c is: %d\n",c);
 printf ("c++ + ++c: %d\n", c++ + ++c );
 printf ("after this c is: %d\n",c);
 return 0;
}

Hard times, again. Hard to find time to stop, I feel something is missing. Maybe some holliday. While checking our schedule, we decided to have a break at next week. This is our last hope. I could just hope this will be OK for my clients and for Emese’s boss.

The plan is to camp out somewhere near, for examle to the Aquapark in Mogyorod… hmm… sounds relaxating. Although I need some rest, the weather forecasts and state of my projects make me feel bad about the next week… we will see.

Easy way to create a new certificate instead of the autogenerated one which comes with “apt-get install courier-imap-ssl”:

  • check your /etc/courier/imapd.cnf
  • move the file /etc/courier/imapd.pem to another name or location
  • dpkg-reconfigure courier-imap-ssl
  • restart imapd and check if everything was ok
